Empire is back in production and the cast is hard at work on the biggest show in decades. So hard that the actors takes a cat nap whenever they can. Taraji P Henson was woken up early yesterday with the news that she received an Emmy nomination, so she was a little more tired than normal. She took a quick shut eye and her TV son, Jussie Smollett was there to capture that moment. Sadly for him, the production bell went off and he was busted. First by the crew and then by his TV mom. Proving that the reason why Henson is so perfect as Cookie is because that character is more her than the role. Good thing there were no brooms around or Jamal would understand what his older brother felt in that infamous scene.
Taraji P Henson was partying with her Empire mogul Lee Daniels and he filmed her in way that he hasn’t done so on his show yet. He caught Cookie Twerking and she wasn’t to happy about it. If I were him, I would be careful because we’ve seen what happens to people when they get her mad. Hide the brooms!

Before Taraji P Henson was stealing back her husband on Empire, she stole her best friend’s ex on Smart Guy. She looks the same now as she did when she was 28 in that 1998 episode.
Taraji P Henson was on The Arsenio Hall Show yesterday and he asked her if she ever did a scene that was scary for her. She told him that filming her sex scene with Tyrese in the movie Baby Boy was scary for her. Then she told him as hard as it was for her, it was even harder for the model. She claims that he was in the corner crying over it, and then he surprised everyone when he came out to say she was lying. The two BFFs then argues what really happened that day and I don’t know who to believe. I say there is some truth to both of their stories. What do you think?
Taraji P. Henson was the guest host today on Anderson Live and just before she was set to go on her dress split open. Being the professional that she is, she went on with the show. Except she had to have two seamstresses sew up her dress as she walked on the stage and then sat down. It didn’t even faze her that they were fixing up her dress as she talked to Anderson Cooper. But then again as she explained it, it isn’t the first time that happened to her.
